Drive Belt Condition

Periodically check the condition and tension of the drive belt, and

always carry a spare. Inspect the belt for signs of excessive wear: frayed

edges, missing cogs, cracks and excessive looseness. Replace the belt if

any of these conditions exist. See Belt Troubleshooting on page 130.

For improved drive-away during extremely cold temperatures, remove

the belt and warm it to room temperature. Reinstall it before starting the

snowmobile.

The following procedures apply to standard, electronic reverse and

TEAM driven clutches.
